I'm looking for someone who has experience shaping a Chinese Pepper.
Anyone out there? :huh:

Do not have the species. If you post a picture you might get better responses.

Good idea.

That is a Zanthoxylum piperitum. This one confuses me. When you look up "Zanthoxylum piperitum bonsai" this is what it looks like. When you check the article on Wikipedia though, the picture shows a different plant.... and it is a Japanese pepper. Looks to me Wikipedia is wrong - but that is a guess, I do not have sufficient knowledge.

I have no experience with it, I do not find them very interesting for bonsai.

I got one for my mom few years ago. I don't find it suitable for bonsai training, but it can be a nice plant though. It is not hardy and reacts badly when not watered frequently enough.

Just to be clear: I did not mean to say they are not suitable. Theyŕe just not suitable for me.

Yeah before misunderstanding me, they are like ficuses for me, can be good bonsais, but living in Europe its just kind of impossible. I dont even know where op lives though
